The search for Ron Weasley’s girlfriend, Lavender Brown, is over and the lucky girl to star in the next Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, is 20 year old Jessie Cave.
The choice got the thumbs-up from Rupert Grint, who plays Ron. In an interview with CBBC’s news programme, Newsround, in the UK, Rupert said, “I was involved in the audition and Jessie is really cool and it’s going to be really fun.”
Co-star Emma Watson, who plays Hermione Granger, added “Jessie seems really sweet and perfect for the role of Lavender. The casting is so good and I am looking forward to her scenes with Ron. I think it’s going to be quite a comic film.”
Apart from her future role in Harry Potter, Jessie has appeared with Helen Mirren in Inkheart and she also stars in an upcoming BBC drama, Summerhill.
Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince is due to be released in November 2008.
